Howdy fellow crafters, today I wanted to make a scrapbook layout, I have not had time lately to scrap and I missed it terribly. I decided I wanted to join in on a challenge, and what better challenge than Scrap The Boys! I recently announced that I am a new member on their card maker’s team, so I was excited to enter their scrapbook layout challenge. The link for the challenge is Here and you can enter your own layout or just check out all the other entries and the Design Teams inspiration.

The theme is Great Outdoors, so I had a picture of my hubby being the captain of our pontoon at a lake in Arkansas. 😉

Boating Adventures Layout

The inspiration for the layout was from Get It Scrapped, Single and Pretty lessons by Debbie Hodge. I love her lessons, they are so well explained and demonstrated. I have been a member of Get It Scrapped for a long time and I learn something new every time I watch her. 🙂

I used Echo Park and Carta Bella papers, alphas and embellishments. The View Finder stencil is from Balzer Designs and I sponged it with Peacock FeathersDistress Ink onto a base of Bazzill paper in Lagoon. The cute little anchor tag is a die I received free with an order and I believe it was from Sunny Studios, but I am not positive. I looked at their online shop and did not see it there any longer.

Well it looks like Spring has finally arrived and with Spring comes baseball! I finally got back to doing layouts for a few days and I wanted to share a couple of layouts that I made as part of a Spring Break album. The first layout was of Spring Training in Scottsdale for the Chicago Cubs vs the Seattle Mariners. We had a blast!

Baseball Spring Training Layout

I used the Close To My Heart Cricut Artbooking and Art Philosophy cartridges for this layout. The film strip and camera was from Art Philosophy and the word Baseball as well as the baseball at the bottom of the film strip were from the Artbooking cartridge. The “Spring Training” and “Go Cubs” were from Doodlebug’s Teeny Type alpha stickers. The baseball gear is from Jolee’s stickers.

The second page for this album showcased some pool frolics with my daughter and niece. It is the second side to a layout I featured a while back. This one utilized the same color combos so they coordinated and I used a layout challenge from Debbie Hodge “Get it Scrapped”. She is so incredibly talented and I learn so much about design principles from her.

Layout based on “Three Acts” principles.

I am going to end this post with the message above…Sunny Days! Yes indeed.
